The Olive Branch for Children
Huduma ya afya
TOBFC inashirikiana na serikali za mitaa na wilaya kuleta elimu bora, kwa watoto wa jamii za vijijini.
TOBFC imeanzisha Shule 30 za chekechea mfumo wa Montessori (kila moja "Darasa la Casa") na imekamilisha ujenzi wa majengo 17 ya shule ya Montessori, kwa ajili ya watoto ambao vinginevyo hawangekuwa na elimu "rasmi". Zaidi ya watoto 2,000 kwa sasa wameandikishwa katika Shule ya Chekechea ya Montessori katika shule hizi. Tunazipatia shule zetu kila mwaka nyenzo mpya kwa ajili ya Madarasa yao ya Casa na mafunzo ya kitaalam kwa Watanzania wanaofundisha katika shule hizi. Aidha, TOBFC inatekeleza mpango wa afya kwa watoto waliosajiliwa shuleni ikiwa ni pamoja na unawaji mikono, dawa za minyoo na kampeni za kuzuia mapunye.
Mpango wetu wa Montessori ni wa kipekee kwani unashirikiana na kila jamii ili kukuza uwekezaji na usaidizi wa jamii, na kuhakikisha mafanikio yake. Ili kuwa na shule iliyojengwa katika jamii yao, viongozi wa jamii lazima wafike TOBFC na kutuma ombi la mpango wa Montessori. Jamii lazima itoe muundo wa awali na/au ardhi ambapo TOBFC inaweza kujenga shule. Hilo likishaanzishwa, jamii inawajibika kuweka pamoja kamati ya shule kutoka kwa washiriki. Kamati hiyo inamchagua mwalimu na kuamua ni mchango gani wa jamii kwa ajili ya mshahara wa mwalimu (1000-3000TSH/kwa kila familia). Aidha, jamii huchangia katika ujenzi wa shule, kama vile kushiriki katika ujenzi au kufanya kazi ili kutoa vifaa vya ujenzi. TOBFC inagharamia gharama zingine zote za ziada zinazohusiana na shule, ikijumuisha posho kwa mwalimu, fanicha na vifaa vya kujifunzia vya Madarasa ya Casa.

mlombwa yassin, MONTESSORI ACADEMy head of school
Mlombwa joined our TOBFC family when she was 7 years old. She was a gifted and hard-working student at primary and secondary school, where her interest in the sciences was first sparked. She completed her Form VI studies in Biology, Chemistry, and Geography and was selected to attend the Dar-es-Salaam University College of Education, a constituent college of the University of Dar-es-Salaam. Her studies focused on becoming a secondary school biology and chemistry teacher. Mlombwa chose to do her field placement at a secondary school in Mbeya, teaching primarily biology to Form I and Form II students so that she could give back to her community and positively impact the students.
After graduation, Mlombwa returned to Mbeya and is now the Head of School for TOBFC Montessori Academy. She uses her unique insights and experience as a former TOBFC student to enhance the learning environment for current students and ensure each child’s needs are personally met. She also encourages building strong teacher/student relationships based on good communication and positive reinforcement.
